-LRB- CNN -RRB- After weeks of controversy and the sudden departures of two co-hosts , `` Fashion Police '' is going on an extended break .

The fashion commentary show on E! channel announced Tuesday that it will be on hiatus until September .

`` We look forward to taking this opportunity to refresh the show before the next awards season , '' it said in a statement .

The announcement caps a rocky few months .

Last week , co-host Kathy Griffin bid the show bye-bye after seven episodes , saying her style did not blend in with her co-hosts . She made a dig at the show on her way out .

`` There is plenty to make fun of in pop culture without bringing people 's bodies into it , '' she said in a statement . `` I do not want to use my comedy to contribute to a culture of unattainable perfectionism and intolerance towards difference . ''

Shortly before her departure , co-host Giuliana Rancic faced backlash last month for suggesting that Disney star Zendaya Coleman 's dreadlocks smelled of marijuana .

Rancic later issued an on-air apology to the 18-year-old after social media jumped to the teen 's defense .

But her apology was not enough for co-host Kelly Osbourne , who criticized her remarks and quit a few days later .

Rancic and fellow co-host Brad Goreski will return in September , along with executive producer Melissa Rivers .
